The design department was loaded with serious talent, after all.
Having Anastasia walk in as a senior designer right out of the gate definitely pissed some people off.
Hearing Narissa go too far, Barbara’s expression turned stone cold. “Ms. Caldwell, we’re all professionals here. Let’s keep it that way.”
Narissa put on a fake apologetic face. “My bad, Barbara. You know how I am–sometimes my mouth runs faster than my brain”
She shot Anastasia a nasty look right after.
Anastasia thought the whole thing was absurd, but she knew office drama could get vicious
-Anyway, to welcome our newest team member, we’re doing dinner tonight after work.” The moment Barbara finished, everyone started cheering.
Hell yeah–another company dinner they didn’t have to pay for.
Anastasia appreciated Barbara’s gesture–it would definitely help her click with the team faster.

Nobody bothered arguing with her spin.
Though they all thought it was bizarre–this level of treatment was definitely unprecedented
The restaurant was absolutely incredible–every plate looked like something from a cooking show and tasted even better.

Knowing Anastasia was obsessed with seafood, Cassian had Phips and over some premium catches to their private dining room
Maine lobster, king crab, fresh oysters–the whole nine yards.
When Philips rolled up with servers carrying all this incredible food, everyone’s jaws Inerally dropped.
“Mr. Rhodes is here tonight for business and heard about your team dinner welcoming a new colleague, so he wanted to send over some seafood. He appreciates all your hard work,” Plulips delivered the line perfectly.
Nobody questioned it–they were just completely stunned.
